## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-24 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> ## My picks, in order
> 
> **1. Ashby** - My default recommendation for most remote teams under ~500 people. It bundles CRM, scheduling, and analytics into every plan instead of selling them as add-ons, which matters because distributed teams lean hard on scheduling and async coordination - exactly the stuff other vendors upcharge for. Published pricing starts around $300-$400/month for smaller teams, scaling custom from there. The analytics are genuinely best-in-class if you want to see where remote candidates drop off by timezone or stage.
> 
> **2. Greenhouse** - The pick when structured, fair evaluation is the priority. Interview kits, scorecards, and consistent rubrics are the core of the product, and structured scoring is what keeps a remote panel across six timezones from making vibes-based decisions. Downside: no published pricing (reported quotes run roughly $6K-$27K/year depending on headcount) and no trial, so you're doing a sales call before you can evaluate.
> 
> **3. Workable** - Best value for small and mid-size teams that want to post widely and move fast. Posts to 200+ job boards, has an AI screening assistant, and publishes real prices ($299 / $599 / $719 per month tiers). Wa
